Do you know what one of the biggest secrets is to getting a home to look fabulous? Good stuff!! Well I know it seems obvious, but still we buy things that are on sale because they are a steal, then decide later on, that we really don’t like them. At some point, we end up […]
Neutral Rugs Add Calm
Once upon a time my entire home was red. Everything was red, well not everything, but a lot of things were. In the girls’ room at the farm (one bed per child, plus an extra for a friend) I decided to go more neutral. this room went from being red, red, red to just slightly […]
